The Linux Libertine / Biolinum family has not been maintained in a long time and has lots of known issues that were never fixed.
Libertinus Serif / Sans is a fork that not only address the naming issue, which would make it easier to include here, but fixes hundreds of issues with glyphs as well. If anything gets included it should be that.

Any progess with this? :)

I'm going to attempt a pull request adding Libertine/Biolinum/Libertinus soon, no promises it will go well, but one person is trying to move it forward.

This would be amazing. Libertinus is one of the nicest free font families, and it has removed "Linux" from its name.
The most up-to-date version is: https://github.com/alerque/libertinus

Here are the docs for onboarding to Google Fonts: https://googlefonts.github.io/gf-guide/
The docs are currently written to discourage public participation, but please just ignore that and work on it anyway if you want to.
I can't do all the work now, but if you @ me in this issue I can help.

Linux is trademark of the Linux Foundation, and my enquiry a couple years ago about Google using that trademark for these fonts never got a reply. Philipp could remove the trademark name from his next release to solve this, or I could do it. I've requested this from him here, https://sourceforge.net/p/linuxlibertine/bugs/315/

haha I was just asking him why https://sourceforge.net/p/linuxlibertine/discussion/307868/thread/b2195e99/ is moderated. Censorship!! ;)
Maybe he can do the trademark removal as well.
He already has :)
Since the last release at https://sourceforge.net/p/linuxlibertine/ was in 2012, I'm happy to onboard Khaled's fork.

Libertinus by itself should do it, as you can see in the previous comments, there is an objection to the "Linux" name in the other ones. Thanks for working on it!

Since writing the comment above I've become the maintainer of the Libertinus font family. I'm happy to help facilitate this. Probably one of the next things that needs to happen is getting Google to reply again on this licensing issue and working out a resolution so that the build system isn't a blocker (for this or other fonts).

Any progress on that topic? I would also very much appreciate libertinus in GFonts!
Thanks!

Should I mention that @khaledhosny has made a fork to fix the long-standing bugs and adds OT math, maybe you could use that as a base: https://github.com/khaledhosny/libertine
Maybe he can do the trademark removal as well.

Great! Thanks everyone :)

Alternatively a sublicense could be requested http://www.linuxfoundation.org/programs/legal/trademark

Any news, @davelab6 ? (appreciate that you're a busy man!)

Any news about this? Libertinus is more than ready to be hosted on Google Fonts.

For a long time I like Libertinus Sans (before the predecessor) and use it. Since I use cooperative online work for scientific papers including Zotero citation I would really be happy to have this font available in Google Docs which relies on Google Fonts. Would pair great with Noto Sans I think, which for some reason can not be selected in Google Docs.
It seems while before the name Linux, now the license AGPL as well as necessary TTF creation are not allowing to see Libertinus at GF anytime soon. I'm following here in case there are News.
